  1. Super Beast- Demo Presented by: HJ Arnett Industries, LLC Chris Shipley Portland, OR 1-800-684-9844

  2. First Things First • The following presentation is a factory simulation and results may vary for each utility • Always wear proper safety equipment when operating the Super Beast • Make sure all connections are secure

  3. Remove the lock and seal Remove the Meter Disconnect Neutral leading from meter to service location and fuse panel Inspect the meter base and connections Attach the green neutral clip Getting Started

  4. Place the Super Beast in the socket with the neutral clip attached and the voltage will show from each conductor to the neutral. As you will see in this simulated model, the reading is 111V. At most utilities the meters will read 120V +/- 5%.

  5. For those hard to reach places, the Meter Base Adapter adds 7 feet reach for easy access. If you are using the meter base adaptor here are the proper steps. Hook up the neutral clip to the metal ground strip through the hole at the bottom of the adaptor. Using the Meter Base Adaptor- For the hard to reach places

  6. Attach the Super Beast into the base adaptor with the green clip located at the bottom of the Super Beast. Clip the alligator clips to the -Meter Socket -Weather Head -Transformer -Junction Box Using the Meter Base Adaptor-For the hard to reach places

  7. With the toggle switch moved to the left you are applying 20 Amps to the left conductor. One of the following examples will occur. Apply load to the left conductor

  8. Applying load to the left conductor • This photo is of the load being applied to the left conductor with nothing wrong on the utility side of the meter can. The left meter drops 1 volt which is acceptable with a 20 Amp load applied. • 120 V – 5% (maximum acceptable drop) = 114 VAC. 6 Volt drop may be OK, but look close at all connections, wire size, length of service drop. Determine your standards.

  9. Applying load to the left conductor • This photo is of a partially open left conductor. The left meter decreases and the right meter stays relatively the same at 110V.

  10. Applying load to the left conductor • This picture shows a fully open left conductor with the left meter going blank and the right meter staying close to the original 111V.

  11. Applying load to the left conductor • Here we have a partially open neutral. The left meter dips significantly and the right meter increases above the usual voltage. Also, if you toggle to the right, you will see the same voltages reversed.

  12. With the toggle switch moved to the right you are applying 20 Amps to the right conductor. One of the following examples will occur. Apply load to the right conductor

  13. Applying load to the right conductor • This photo shows no problem on the utility side of the meter. A load is being applied to the right conductor and the right meter only drops 1 volt and the left stays the same.

  14. Applying load to the right conductor • Here we have a partially open right conductor. The load is applied to the right side and the right meter drops but the left stays the same.

  15. Applying load to the right conductor • This picture represents a fully open right conductor with the right meter going blank and the left meter staying at the original 111V.

  16. Here we see that there is a partially open neutral due to the decrease in the right meter and an increase on the left meter. Once again if you toggle to the left, you will see the same voltages reversed. Applying load to the right conductor

  17. You may move the toggle switch to either the left or right and one meter will rise to approximately 240 V and the other will go blank. Full Open Neutral

  18. Super Beast Tutorial • If you have any trouble using the Super Beast, please give us a call at 800-684-9844. • Remember, the Super Beast is to be used on 120V service only • If you feel that the 20 Amp load is insufficient for isolating the trouble, we do have the Mega Beast available with up to 80 Amps of applicable load.
